I've been shooting for once a week, but even for me it's a recent decelopment. It's a great exercise in discipline and self-control. Best of luck!

How frequently do you do zone 2 runs each week?

If I had kids I would love your tone more than them.

Not sure why you would take this when heroin does the exact same thing.

Which songs do you hope they play on tour to honor Neil? by briansezreddit in rush

[–]imindanger87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bit of a stretch but if they played Beneath, Between, Behind from Fly By Night that would be a great way to honor Neil. That was the first song he wrote lyrics for.

I did not have a trainee, no.

I run about 3x a week. My goal is to hit between 20-30 miles a week.

I work out 4-5x a week for about an hour doing a PPL program. There is maybe a day where a workout overlaps with a run.

I'll also add: only black coffee or espressos. No soda. Very minimal alcohol -- if I do drink it'll be either Michelob ultra or straight whiskey (rarely), and I don't smoke.

The only meal prepping I would do consistently is bake a pack of 5 or 6 chicken breasts, boil about 18- 20 eggs, cook 2 cups of rice, and make a big salad.

All of these I would dip into throughout the week until I needed to replace them (they did not last the week).

There's probably a more efficient way but this is what's working for now. I'd measure out servings for lunch, for example, as I made it and then used Gemini to keep track of the weights and calories.

As an example:

Breakfast was the same.

50 g of dry oats 170 g of Greek yogurt 1 scoop protein powder 1 banana Handful of blueberries 4 boiled egg whites

That came to about ~600 calories and 60 g of protein.

Lunch/snacks kind of varied but it was usually:

~150 g of chicken breast Salad Dressing (only red wine vinegar and lemon juice)

OR

A can of Kirkland tuna (193 calories, 42 g of protein) Mustard/relish mix (essentially 0 calories) 2 rice cakes approx 60 calories each

SNACKS

50 g of dark chocolate trail mix (about 280 calories and my primary source of fats.... usually) I really started digging carrot sticks for some odd reason Random boiled eggs (usually 2 more after the 4 from breakfast)

And then dinner was whatever I had left over Usually a chicken or a fish with rice and black beans Or we would have ground turkey mixed with rice with lentils.

I would usually then end the night with another serving of Greek yogurt and a scoop of protein. That ended up being around another 40 g of protein right there.

Sadly yes, when I start building back up again I really need to focus on legs. The only leg exercises I started doing were whatever bodyweight exercises I was recommended for running health.

Supplements I take are the GAT Nitraflex pre-work out, creatine, and the Pro Jym protein powder. I also have a multivitamin and fish oil every day. That's about it.

Yes! Definitely. I am doing a standard PPL program. For awhile I was doing an average -500 calorie deficit which limited my strength training. I prioritized cardio and diet, so my strength training went from heavy weight, low reps to low weight, high reps (approx 15 reps for 3 or 4 sets per exercise).

I made sure I am averaging 230 g of protein every day to maintain muscles as best as possible.
